“We received a tip from members of the general public that there was a motor vehicle plunged into Illovo Forest, a certain idle land within Dwangwa Estate, for about three hours.

“Following the tip from members of the general public, police on December 14 intercepted the said motor vehicle inside Illovo Forest in Dwangwa where it was parked,” he said.

According to documents on the vehicle, the car belongs to a Mr Hasaan Mussa.

Police have since commended communities around Dwangwa for partnering with them in the process to prevent and reduce crime in the area.

The deputy publicist explained that the dead body was found in a decomposed state with chopped left breast and several deep cuts in the head, hands and both legs.

“We therefore ask the general public to assist where possible with any information which can lead to the arrest of the suspects,” said Malimwe.
